Windows 10 is now installed on over 400 million devices

4.6
At the end of June, exactly eleven months after its original launch, Microsoft announced that Windows 10 had made its way to over 350 million devices.

Today, at its Ignite conference - almost three months later - the company updated that figure: Windows 10 is now installed on more than 400 million devices.

Since last August, the average rate of new Windows 10 installations stabilized at around 800,000 to 900,000 per day, except around Thanksgiving and Christmas. During that period, the new OS benefited from a boost in festive sales, along with the release of the Windows 10-based 'New Xbox One Experience' during the same quarter, helping to increase average daily additions to around 1,000,000.

With 88 days having passed since its last update, that means that the rate of installations has slowed considerably since Microsoft reached 350 million on June 29. From an average of 909,000 new installations (including new devices) per day, the growth rate has now decreased to around 568,000 per day - that's still a huge number, but there's no disguising the fact that it also represents a decline of around 38% compared with the average growth rate from May to June.
